the moon and the stars

"Once I was beset by anxiety.
I couldn't tell right from left.
I could have cried out with terror at being lost.
But I pushed the fear away by studying the sky,
determining where the moon would come out

where the sun would appear in the morning.

I saw myself in relation to the stars.

I began weeping and knew I was alright."
